Review of The Island (2006) by Skyler B — 20 Jan 2013
Half decent sci-fi idea, typically dumbed down. Eventually morphs into a reasonable action movie but consistently, nimbly, avoids intelligence at every opportunity. And the product placement?! A Nokia in the advert break was more futuristic than the one in the movie! MSN Search was in the movie.
.. that's already outdated - currently Bing, but everyone knows how often Microsoft change product names. Did anyone really think this sort of thing would build rather than devalue brands?
